Notes on intelligent function settings and operation

• When setting intelligent function, do an actual detection test to confirm that detection will be performed correctly.

• When the entire screen are exposed to sudden changes in brightness, detection may not be performed as intended for up to 5 minutes.

• If [Auto] is used in [Day/Night] settings, and automatic switching between [Day Mode] and [Night Mode] is performed, [Restarting intelligent function. Please wait.] is shown and intelligent function will restart. Detection will not be performed while intelligent function is restarting.

• If the camera is operated during intelligent function setting or operation, [Restarting intelligent function. Please wait.] is shown and intelligent function will restart. Detection will not be performed while intelligent function is restarting.

• Set intelligent function again if the angle of view is changed through camera operation, or the camera position of a preset or home position is changed using Preset Setting Tool.

Difficult-to-detect Subjects

• Objects or portions where there is little contrast in color or brightness with the background may not be detected.

• Small objects and changes on the screen may not be detected.

• Partial or entire changes in light on the screen may trigger detection.

• If multiple objects overlap, the detection status may change. In particular, passing may not be detected or may be detected at the wrong timing.
